After discovering drums in the 10th grade, Bryan Leppo has been engulfed in the riddle of rhythm for 3 decades. He has played in many different arrangements and situations over the years. In 2001 Bryan read Mickey Hart’s “Drumming at the Edge of Magic” and it changed the focus of his trajectory. Since then Bryan has been researching, practicing, inquiring, seeking, interviewing all who realize the deep universal truth of the instrument and yelling to the mountain tops to those who don’t! Bryan’s early years were consumed with the rhythms of Film, he cut his teeth in a video store in the early 90s and has an extensive PRE GOOGLE database in his head of worthless classics and modern day gems. Bryan also has a degree in Film from FullSail in Florida. Bryan and Woe Davis have been friends the entire journey from Maryland to Florida and back again.

Rachel first approached Davis in Nov of ‘24 when she came across the Sanity Lounge Podcast and had some ideas for content. She told him “We’re going to be friends we just haven’t met yet” and a few short weeks later synchronicity placed them in each other’s paths at a local brewery and strangers became friends. By February she was in the Lounge as a fly on the wall and met Leppo and Weal. The rest is History (actually, it is “Her” story) but it is a good one either way!
